Description

When HS2 is brought up, the server can be inited with the given hive config: HiveServer2#init(HiveConf hiveConf). That configuration should be applied through the entire setup process for all services. However, while starting ThriftCLIService, it creates a new HiveAuthFactory object, whose constructor creates a new HiveConf object and ends up using it rather than using the HiveConf passed during HS2 bootstrap.
